gerryonimo Posted November 11, 2020 Share Looks like it’s pretty well thought out by organizers after watching the life event this evening. Kudos to Dave and his teamI rode this event for the first time last year, with iRide from JHB, very impressed with the organization and of course the route. One of the best races I have ever done! Lucky enough to be invited back to ride it again this year. Kudos to Dave Belliars and his team for finding a way to make it happen again, without a headline sponsor. Really looking forward to it now, our new team kit is made, some nice long training rides done, flights and accommodation booked. Please guys arrange some nice weather down there to welcome us Vaalies! JohanDiv and DieselnDust 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Baldrick as a local which watering hole would you recommend, not too far from the finish, for a tired team to grab an adult beverage recovery drink? Perhaps with nice outdoor seating facilities?

Baldrick Posted November 12, 2020 Share We have had a lot of places close down over the last few months. It's only 2km from the finish to the end of town, so any place is not too far. La Belle Alliance on Swelengrebel would be first prize. gerryonimo 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DieselnDust Posted November 12, 2020 Share seeding is up team numbering is not according to the race briefing so I guess the team support zones will be demarcated as it has been for the last 20years except theres only 144 teams Edited November 12, 2020 by DieselnDust Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

K20Champ Posted November 13, 2020 Share Starting before 5:30am will make it an interesting race, not too early and not too late Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
reflexus Posted November 13, 2020 Share We're not the last time to start but late enough to make me worry about being somewhere between Robertson and Bonnievale just after Midday... DieselnDust and K20Champ 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
